Ninth-Gen iPad Still Available for Same $329 Starting Price
Following the announcement of the 10th-generation iPad, the ninth-generation model remains available from Apple for the same $329 starting price.
The 64GB and 256GB ninth-generation iPad models continue to be available for $329 and $479, respectively. They are still offered in the same Silver and Space Gray color options, meaning that there has been no change to the pricing or available configurations of the device.
The ninth-generation iPad features a 10.2-inch display with True Tone, a 12MP Ultra Wide front camera with Center Stage, and the A13 Bionic chip. The new, 10th-generation iPad now sits above the ninth-generation model in the lineup and starts at $449, featuring a new design, a 10.9-inch display, a USB-C port, the A14 Bionic chip, a landscape front-facing camera, support for the Magic Keyboard Folio, and more.
